ADS - Ads that resonate in these recessionary times...

We recently asked our panel of thought leaders if there were any ads that they had noticed recently that felt especially right for the times. Five brands were mentioned most often:

Allstate
“a great one referring to their formation during The Great Depression”

Hyundai
“if you lose your job, you can return your car”


Wal-Mart
“smart”

Travelocity
“the gnome stands in front of the beach backdrop and someone moves signs to promote a sale due to the recession. It shows an attempt to save money and offer discounts……”


Pepsi
“optimism and joy”
